RELEASE BLITZ & 4 STAR: Stay for Me (The Arrowood Brothers #4) by Corinne Michaels



Hollywood taught me everything I know about relationships—except how to be in one. As an actor, I became an expert at faking it. Faking that I wasn't affected by my childhood. Faking that I was okay. Faking that I knew how to save the day, the girl, the whole damn world.

But I've always known the truth—I’m no one's hero.

Until I’m forced to move back to Sugarloaf for six months, and Brenna Allen offers me a chance to prove otherwise. She’s everything I never knew I wanted, but can't have. Her broken heart, perfect face, and adorable children turn my world upside down. Instead of preparing for my next leading role, I’m directing a middle school play.

All to make her smile.

The more time I spend here, the more I want to stay. Build a life in this town that I swore I’d leave—for her.

But when the world comes crashing down around us, I’m forced to decide if staying for her is the right choice or if leaving is better for the woman I love.

My Review

I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review. 

I've been waiting for Jacob's book and I was not disappointed! He's the last Arrowood boy to come home and like his brothers before him, he thinks that he will serve his six months and move on. But if you've read the previous books, you will know that that is not how things played out for his brothers. Of course he thinks he will be the exception, but then he meets Brenna. 

I loved Jacob and Brenna. They both know that getting involved was a terrible idea, but they also realized that being just friends was impossible. They stayed "just friends" as long as they could until they just couldn't do it anymore. 

My favorite thing about this book was that we finally had all the Arrowood boys in one place at the same time and it was wonderful. I loved the relationship between all of them, especially when they are teasing each other. As soon as they all realize that Jacob is going through what they all went through, they're supportive, but they also tell him that he needs to be careful considering Brenna's recent personal loss. Nothing like some brotherly love to help him through things. 

This book is a great ending to the series, but we do meet a character who will be getting her own book! I won't say anything else, but an important even that occurs in this book makes way for a future Corinne Michaels' book and I can't wait to read it!

RELEASE BLITZ: The Romantic Pact (Kings of Football #2) by Meghan Quinn





I haven't seen her in three years.

I haven't talked to her since the kiss.

So why am I on a plane, flying across the world to spend a week with her in Germany?

One word: Pops.

My life’s a mess.

My possible football career is hanging on by a thread.

I'm driving the roads of Germany in honor of Pops with the one girl I can never have.

And I’m sharing a bed with her, the girl I've measured everyone else up to, while desperately trying to not to touch her.

We made a pact growing up, never to get romantic with each other - never fall in love.

And I'm about to break that pact. For good.

My Review

I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review. 

This is more like it! Meghan's last release wasn't my cup of tea and that was the first time that has happened, so I was ready to jump into another Meghan Quinn book.

This book is FANTASTIC. I am a sucker for a friends to lovers story and this one was so good. Crew and Hazel were childhood friends who, as they got older, grew apart, but they still had one thing in common: Crew's grandfather. And when he passes away and sends Hazel and Crew on a road trip, they them find themselves on a trip of a lifetime in Germany. 

Having said that, Germany was basically another character in the book. The trip they go on was very carefully planned and every stop and activity had meaning. It wasn't always obvious to Crew and Hazel what that meaning was, but it was always there. 

This book is very fun, but it is also an emotional journey that will give you all the feels. And we also get to visit with some of Meghan's previous characters and it was so nice to see them again. 






USA Today Bestselling Author, wife, adoptive mother, and peanut butter lover. Author of romantic comedies and contemporary romance, Meghan Quinn brings readers the perfect combination of heart, humor, and heat in every book.

My Review

I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review. 

CW: addiction, on page drug use, death of a loved one, two instances of physical violence

This is an excellent book, but a hard one to read. An excellent book that I actually had to put down for a few days before I could pick it up and start reading again. 2020 has been a giant trash fire and and I've tried to read mostly all happy books. When I started this book I knew that at some point it was get complicated and a bit dark, but it wasn't until I started to get to that point that I knew I had to step back until I was mentally ready for it. I even had the thought that maybe I wasn't going to finish it, but I'm glad that I did. 

A lot happens in this book and I won't unpack everything that happens, but I will say this: Vinny and Andy were a mess from the start. They were both dealing with things in their lives in unhealthy ways and I knew that eventually it would all come to a head. I do admit that I was a bit shocked as to how it all played out, so props to the author for keeping me on my toes.  

I said in a previous review, that when you read a Kelsey Kingsley book, you get much more than a love story. She manages to go beyond the surface story and gives us so much more. This book is no exception.
